Filipino Expats Community Jobs in Thailand

Yesterday, I decided to add a Google map plugin which tells me where FilipinosinThailand.com visitors comes from. It’s actually quite fun and interesting to have it added to the site. I know there is one map widget at the bottom right of the page. But it could be easily missed out. Unlike this one.

So far, after installing the program, the result showed us that a lot of our visitors coming from Thailand and the Philippines, Europe and then North America.

In compliance with the Teachers Council of Thailand Rules and Regulations for Testing and Evaluation of Knowledge of Foreigners in Applying for License to Practice the Teaching Profession B.E. 2549 (2006) Clause 2 (1) (2) and (3) [page 2], the English Program Coordinating Center – Northern Region has tasked Anubaan Chiang Mai School to host a Thai Language, Thai Culture and Professional Ethics Course on August 14-16 at Chiang Mai Phucome Hotel.

The course will cover the 20 hours required by the Teachers Council of Thailand (Evaluation of Knowledge for Practicing the Teaching Profession: Thai Language, Thai Culture and Professional Ethics Training Course [page 6-7]) to qualify a foreign teacher who has successfully completed the course to receive a certificate to be used in the application for the Teaching License, given that he/she has complied with all the requirements (Rules and Regulations for Testing and Evaluation of Knowledge of Foreigners in Applying for License to Practice the Teaching Profession B.E. 2549 (2006) Clause 1-6 [page 1-2]).

11 federal states

The joint resolution aims to change the “highly centralized system of government” in Manila, which has “brought about a spotty development of the nation where preferential treatment has been given to localities whose officials are friendly with or have access to an incumbent administration.”

It said the “lopsided arrangement has spawned a host of problems, including massive nationwide poverty to runaway insurgencies and rebellions that feed on the social inequalities in the nation.”

“The federalization of the Republic would speed up the development of the entire nation and help dissipate the causes of the insurgency throughout the land, particularly the centuries-old Moro rebellions,” the resolution said.

The 11 federal states called “centers of finance and development” to be created would be: Northern Luzon, Central Luzon, Southern Tagalog, Bicol, Minparom (Mindoro, Palawan, Romblon), Eastern Visayas, Central Visayas, Western Visayas, Northern Mindanao, Southern Mindanao, and the State of Bangsamoro
